Abstract: A liquid filtration system is provided. The filtration system includes a filter head and a filter cartridge configured to be removably coupled to the filter head. The filter cartridge includes a shell housing and a filter element. The shell housing defines a first housing end, a second housing end, and a housing sidewall extending between the first housing end and the second housing end. The filter element is received within the shell housing and removably coupled to the shell housing. The filter element includes a media pack configured to filter matter from a fluid flowing therethrough and an endcap coupled to an end of the media pack. The endcap comprising a retaining member engaged with the shell housing.

Abstract: A spin-on filter cartridge assembly includes a shell, a filter element, and an end plate. The shell defines an interior cavity. The filter element is disposed within the interior cavity and includes filter media. The end plate is coupled to the shell and is sealingly engaged with the filter media. The end plate retains the filter element within the interior cavity. In some embodiments, the end plate is integrally formed as a single unitary body.

Abstract: A liquid filtration system includes a filter head, a shell housing, and a filter cartridge. The filter head includes a skirt having a ramp disposed at a first end of the skirt. The shell housing is coupled to the filter head. The filter cartridge is disposed within the shell housing. The filter cartridge includes a filter media pack and an endcap coupled to a first end of the filter media pack. The endcap includes an interface member extending from an upper surface of the endcap. The interface member includes a sealing member that is at least partially tilted at an oblique angle relative to a central axis of the endcap. The sealing member is sealingly engaged with the skirt.

Abstract: A no filter no run bidirectional pin element is disclosed. A shell housing is removably coupled to a filtration housing, a removable no filter no run attachment, and a filter element. The filter element comprises a filtration media and a bidirectional pin element. The bidirectional pin element comprises a center tube formed as a single piece with a bidirectional pin. The installation of the filter element and the shell housing into the filtration system results in the bidirectional pin entering a pin aperture of the removable no filter no run attachment and the bidirectional pin preventing the operative engagement of a blocking element with a divider inside the no filter no run attachment.

Abstract: A no filter no filter no run attachment is disclosed. A shell defines a fluid passage from an upstream fluid aperture at a first end for fluid receiving communication with a filtration cartridge to a downstream fluid aperture at a corresponding second end sized and shaped for coupling to a fluid pump inlet. The shell further defines a pin aperture at the first end sized to receive a pin from the filtration cartridge. A divider segments the fluid passage into an upstream portion that comprises the upstream fluid aperture and the pin aperture and a downstream portion that comprises the downstream fluid aperture. The divider also defines an internal aperture that allows fluid communication between the upstream portion and the downstream portion. A ball is disposed in the upstream portion in fluid flow receiving communication with the upstream fluid aperture, and is sized to have a greater diameter than the internal aperture.
